What is ‘nation', according to Tagore?
Answers
Answer:
He defined a nation as “the aspect of a whole people as an organized power” and asserted that this organization thrives on efficiency, which drains man’s energy from realizing his higher moral purpose. But a society that revolves around economic efficiency and rewards it, exults his stature and gives him a false sense of moral superiority and devoid of a cultivated spirituality, he becomes dangerous to society.
